* Revised documentation relevant to SourceForge patch #100837Fred Drake2000-08-251-12/+23
| | | | | | (simplify making HTTP POST requests). Added documentation of URLopener.version and how it can be overridden.
* Documentation for poll() interface (SF patch #100852)Andrew M. Kuchling2000-08-251-1/+76
|
* Rough and incomplete documentation on augmented assignment, which followsThomas Wouters2000-08-243-4/+70
| | | | shortly. Markup also needs checking.
* Addresses the other half of Bug #112634 -- the documentation suggestedGuido van Rossum2000-08-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | that you can set self.version *after* calling the base class __init__. In fact it must be done *before*. (Fred, maybe the version class variable should be documented now?)
* Move references to RFCs to a "See also" section for consistency withFred Drake2000-08-241-5/+16
| | | | other sections of the library reference.
* Moshe Zadka <moshez@math.huji.ac.il>:Fred Drake2000-08-241-0/+12
| | | | | | | Documentation updates for urlretrieve() and URLopener.retrieve(), to reflect Randall Hopper's patch for those functions. This closes SourceForge patch #100837.
* Make sure Thomas Wouters has enough to do. ;-)Fred Drake2000-08-241-0/+4
| | | | | (Some of this is in-progress; this also serves as a reminded to me to check this out once it is written.)
* Charles G. Waldman <cgw@fnal.gov>:Fred Drake2000-08-241-0/+7
| | | | Update the dis module documentation to reflect the EXTENDED_ARG opcode.
* fix list comprehension discussion to use \keyword macro instead of simplySkip Montanaro2000-08-231-3/+4
| | | | quoting keywords.
* update commonprefix doc to make sure user is aware it worksSkip Montanaro2000-08-231-2/+4
| | | | | character-by-character and that that behavior may result in it returning prefixes that are not valid paths
* require list comprehensions to start with a for clauseSkip Montanaro2000-08-222-6/+23

* Describe the new PRINT_ITEM_TO and PRINT_NEWLINE_TO opcodes.Barry Warsaw2000-08-211-2/+12
|
* PEP 214, Extended print Statement, has been accepted by the BDFL.Barry Warsaw2000-08-211-0/+12
| | | | | Document the extended print form. Fred, please double check the markup!
* Strengthen the warning against using SerialCookie and SmartCookie.Andrew M. Kuchling2000-08-201-9/+12
| | | | | (If they're security holes, should they be documented at all?) Minor rewrites.
* Disallow "import mod.submod as m", because the result is ambiguous. Does itThomas Wouters2000-08-191-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | load mod.submod as m, or mod as m ? Both can be achieved differently, and unambiguously. Also attempt to document this restriction (editor appreciated!) Note that this is an artificial check during compile, because incorporating this in the grammar is hard, and then adjusting the compiler to do the right thing with the right nodes is harder.
* Add entry for Cookie module.Fred Drake2000-08-192-0/+2
|
* Make it format.Fred Drake2000-08-191-166/+177
| | | | | | Adjust markup for hyperlinking to the relevant RFCs. Give it a little organization. Minor nits.
* Initial revision. Markup unchecked.Moshe Zadka2000-08-191-0/+232
|
* As pointed out by Denis S. Otkidach <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>, xrange()Fred Drake2000-08-181-14/+15
| | | | | | | | returns an xrange object, not a range object, despite the name of the source file they're implemented in. In the list of comparison operators, list != before <>, since <> is described as obsolescent.
* Adjust the way __getslice__() is marked as deprecated; this will alsoFred Drake2000-08-181-2/+4
| | | | stand out more.
* Fix a markup error that caused formatting to fail.Fred Drake2000-08-181-16/+17
| | | | Lots of minor markup adjustments as well.
* Mention the new 'import X as Y' syntaxAndrew M. Kuchling2000-08-171-0/+4
|
* Document the returns_unicode attributeAndrew M. Kuchling2000-08-171-4/+11
|
* Apply SF patch #101135, adding 'import module as m' and 'from module importThomas Wouters2000-08-172-10/+21
| | | | | | | | name as n'. By doing some twists and turns, "as" is not a reserved word. There is a slight change in semantics for 'from module import name' (it will now honour the 'global' keyword) but only in cases that are explicitly undocumented.
* Apply SF patch #101029: call __getitem__ with a proper slice object if thereThomas Wouters2000-08-171-9/+18
| | | | | | | | is no __getslice__ available. Also does the same for C extension types. Includes rudimentary documentation (it could use a cross reference to the section on slice objects, I couldn't figure out how to do that) and a test suite for all Python __hooks__ I could think of, including the new behaviour.
* Remove an item that's been done.Fred Drake2000-08-171-2/+0
|
* A little more text, and some really minor cleanups.Fred Drake2000-08-171-3/+10
|
* Small cleanups, and note when zip() entered the menagerie.Fred Drake2000-08-171-3/+1
|
* Revise the comments about the exceptions module to not refer to sourceFred Drake2000-08-171-4/+4
| | | | | code; it is not sufficiently readable now that it in written in C, and is less likely to be available to end users.
* Martin v. Loewis <martin@loewis.home.cs.tu-berlin.de>:Fred Drake2000-08-171-0/+19
| | | | Document opcodes added to support extended call syntax.
* \citetitle: Format the title, not the optional URL!Fred Drake2000-08-171-1/+1
|
* Add section on list comprehensionAndrew M. Kuchling2000-08-171-4/+120
| | | | | Comment out the unwritten XML section mymalloc.h -> pymem.h
* Ka-Ping Yee <ping@lfw.org>:Fred Drake2000-08-161-6/+10
| | | | Further examples of list comprehensions.
* Document socket.getfqdn().Fred Drake2000-08-161-4/+12
|
* Mention setdefault() method for dictsAndrew M. Kuchling2000-08-161-0/+16
|
* Apply SF patch #101151, by Peter S-K, which fixes smtplib's passing of theThomas Wouters2000-08-151-0/+2
| | | | | | 'helo' and 'ehlo' message, and exports the 'make_fqdn' function. This function should be moved to socket.py, if that module ever gets a Python wrapper.
* Fix error made in applying Thomas's patch.Fred Drake2000-08-151-1/+1
|
* Thomas Wouters <thomas@xs4all.net>:Fred Drake2000-08-151-1/+2
| | | | | Update the grammar to reflect the most recent changes to list comprehensions.
* Fix markup bug that prevented formatting.Fred Drake2000-08-151-7/+9
| | | | | Adjusted some markup for consistency with the rest of the documentation and creation of the proper index entries.
* Describe the b2a_hex() and a2b_hex() functions (a.k.a. hexlify() andBarry Warsaw2000-08-151-0/+15
| | | | unhexlify() respectively).
* Added description of the md5.hexdigest() method.Barry Warsaw2000-08-151-0/+5
|
* Correct the reference count information for the parameters ofFred Drake2000-08-151-3/+3
| | | | PyErr_Restore().
* Guido pointed out that all names in the sys module have no underscore,Fred Drake2000-08-151-1/+1
|
* For bug reporting, point to the SourceForge bug tracker instead of theFred Drake2000-08-141-2/+2
| | | | old Jitterbug interface.
* Document the byte_order value in the sys module.Fred Drake2000-08-141-0/+8
|
* Document the range type, as suggested by Denis S. OtkidachFred Drake2000-08-141-4/+24
| | | | <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>.
* In the section on the "Very High Level Layer", address concerns brought upFred Drake2000-08-141-0/+9
| | | | | | | | by Edward K. Ream <edream@users.sourceforge.net> about FILE* values and incompatible C libraries in dynamically linked extensions. It is not clear (to me) how realistic the issue is, but it is better documented than not. This closes SourceForge bug #111520.
* Fix some markup errors that prevented formatting, and one that didn't.Fred Drake2000-08-121-4/+5
|
* list comprehensions. seeSkip Montanaro2000-08-122-5/+35
| | | | | | http://sourceforge.net/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=100654&group_id=5470 for details.
* Added information for PyEval_EvalCode().Fred Drake2000-08-121-2/+7
| | | | Fixed a couple of typos (new references are represented by "+1", not "1").
